Anubis

This show follows a group of British boarding school students who unravel the mysteries hidden within their house.

I personally love this show! The mysteries and twists and turn, as well as a hint of comedy, which makes the show interesting. But I have to say... The acting is terrible. This is my favorite show, but the acting is what makes this show an 8 instead of a 10.

This show is always interesting and I always am looking forward to watching the next episode. But, House of Anubis is returning to Nick in 2012 with new characters and mysteries so please watch this show and try it out! I hope this review helped! And please review this!

I've been doing a rewatch of this show on Paramount+ because its been 10 years it aired and about 7 years since I last watched it. The thing that made this show so great for its time was that it was the first time Nickelodeon released something that didn't overuse a laugh track. Despite it being a remake, it still bad it's qaulities. Yeah it could be a bit cringe sometimes but other than its flaws, still was an enjoyable rewatch.

When I first heard that for the first time on American TV that this new show called "House of Anubis" was coming out on Nickelodeon, they didn't give much info and my reaction was "sooo...." but when I started watching it I became fascinated the drama, the romance, the treasure hunting, the betrayal, the hilarious comedy the great actors (both British and American), and the ancient Egyptian information!!!I can declare House of Anubis is irresistible to anyone that watches it and is appropriate for all ages. Not too immature but not too mature. I love the love triangle between Nina, Fabian, and Joy, how Joy feels left out, how Nina can't stand her and how Fabian still has feelings for Nina but Joy is constantly getting in the way! And, I personally think Amber still has feelings for Alfie, and the relationship between Patricia and Eddie is kind of a roller-coaster but what relationship isn't? I also think Jerome and Mara should get together, it would be good for Jerome considering what he's going through. I hope theirs a season 3!!! Love it!

I loved this show as a kid and you can imagine my excitement when NickHits came out on amazon prime!! The acting is...a hit or miss at times and the transitional camera angles can be wonky. I never noticed this as a kid and only know that I'm taking classes for this am I noticing it. All of this is made up for with the plot. It's an amazing plot and I highly recommend this show!

When I first saw this saw back in the middle of my 6th grade year I didn't know what to expect. A story-driven comedy adventure airing on Nick? Surprisingly though it works really well. While there are some "childish" moments there is indeed a very interesting plot through each of the 3 seasons (I haven't finished the third season so I can't really say.. I stopped following after my 7th grade year with Season 2) Of the approximate 60 episodes per season each totaling at about 11 minutes per episode there is just enough to push each plot and to leave the viewer coming back the next day with even more questions.

Upon re-watching it, a few things I must mention to an older, 17+ audience: The characters, while starting a bit obnoxious, really come into their own as the series continues and the drama rises. The acting is... meh. Some are decent actors but a lot of them wear the British twang a bit too much (Patricia specifically) which leads to some borderline "Whine" like performances and line delivery.

The comedy is usually childish with some annoying noises and characters acting silly... but as the series goes on and you learn more about the characters the jokes go from slapstick "meh" fest to really funny character jabs. (One of my favorites is when the make fun of Victor in season 2)

The show really becomes second nature and I have many fond memories of Season 2's middle being EXCELLENT. The plot in the first two seasons are convoluted to a point where it becomes a Joy (pun not intended) to watch unfold and how many ties the different strings of the mysteries really have.

Overall, give this show a shot.. like what you see? (The sometimes corny-British heavy mystery serialized show) Then defiantly check out Season 2.
